Customer journey FAQ.

Why is focusing on the customer journey important to becoming a mature experience business?

Because of the changing consumer landscape, issues such as multi-device engagements, channel fatigue, and expectations of a singular brand experience demand that the entire lifecycle be treated as a continuous journey.

Journey mapping can help you set budgets, identify technology needs, set workflows, improve content and campaign delivery, and manage development cycles.

Is marketing the only business function impacted by a customer journey strategy?

Focusing on the customer experience requires organizational change that can impact customer-facing organizations as well as backend teams like accounting, human resources, and purchasing.

If I create a static customer journey map after analyzing available data, are we good to go?

No. Customer expectations and preferences, as well as technology and competitive climate, can change over time, leading to new and different types of interactions. As such, best practices suggest ongoing journey mapping.

How do we get started?

Start planning your strategy by holding workshops with stakeholders to uncover roadblocks, requirements, resource availability, and other issues. A successful approach looks at the impact on the organization first, then builds an implementation plan.
